492 - Dropped Again

Mack and Darrin back for their second livestream. They are still working on improving the process. Looks like there will be a livestream and then an edited version that gets posted. This is to account for some of the video buffering issues that can happen. We have a few quiet spots where Mack’s audio didn’t make it to the stream recording.
